Seat cover question

Post by Coyote »

Even though it's new, I really don't like the seat cover I have. I've been looking on eBay for one closer to stock. A lot of the ad's say GT380, T500 and GT550. I thought the T500 seat was different. Can someone confirm?
I was born with nothing and still have most of it left.

Mate I just bought one for my GT500, I'm happy with the quality and it cost only $40 delivered (Thailand to Oz)
I'm pretty sure that there is a difference between the triples and the twins, because one British supplier told me that, - something to do with the seatlock catch and chrome trim, the twins don't have that stuff. And I've got a sneaking suspicion that there may be differences between GT500 and T500 (Titans), to do with the difference in length of tank, but can't really remember, sorry.
